I'm looking for a working rig. Got thinking this morning on my walk to work about what to match with my HQ-110C receiver. Originally I wanted a DX-60B, or Johnson Adventurer, or some such that is roughly contemporary (a bit of a stretch on the Heath...). Then I thought about what the "average" might have in fact had when the HQ-110C was around (late 50s). Where homebrew still "in"? Hence the thought of looking for one. My guess is that most have been scrapped for parts or put in the dumpster by now, but then maybe you folks my have same.... Just raising the question here, since is this more of a tube-based homebrew group :-). Now an Ameco or Heath AT-1 would be nice....:-) Cheers/73.
